10 Things to do Good for Kids in Krabi Town That You Shouldn't Miss
The southern Thailand town of Krabi serves as base camp for exploring the province of the same name, a lush region of jungles, limestone cliffs and idyllic isles floating just offshore in the Andaman Sea. Buddhist shrines still used by local monks are tucked into the chambers of the town's top attraction, Tiger Cave. The riverside pier links travelers with ferries and longboats to the best scuba diving, rock climbing and white sand beaches on the coast.

Visited on Sunday January 2019 from long muang beach (we stayed at sofitel krabi). WHAT WE DID: went via private long tail boat to Koh pak Bia, La ding island and then Hong island itself (2500 bhat and extra 200 addes as we asked for food which helped us!) we opted for this as it gave us flexibility for which order we wanted to go to the islands and I wanted to be at hing island when there were few people. we left at 10am - 40 mins to pak bia- beautiful we were one if the first ones there which was great. La ding was then packed busy so we skipped it ! got to hong island at 12:30. had lunch then went to the lagoon and then to hong island itself. At 2:45-3pm most people had left and the place was a lot quieter so fantastic to enjoy! the water was turquoise, pretty clear but I wouldn't say snorkel worthy. pure white sand beach. nature trail to enjoy too TIPS: -go private boat if you want to enjoy it for peace and quiet and go either first thing in the morning or aim to be there around 2-4pm -take lunch and drinks. there is a restaurant though -do the nature trail! just a lovely peaceful walk on forest path. we didn't have time to go all the way so did a little bit then came back -RELAX! Pros: beautiful stunning beach and lagoon, Cons: nothing.

Phra Nang cave beach, is breathtaking! Depending on your route, you can go to railay beach west and walk through to railay beach east, and on through the caves to Phra Nang, the journey to Phra Nang is absolutely beautiful, you will likely see some wildlife along the way and there is even a slight rock climb (rope assisted) up to a viewpoint, unfortunately I didn't get to the viewpoint, but imagine its unbelievable once you get to the top. There are shops in the little resort style town on the way through where you can grab cold beverages of any sort, and snacks, and enjoy them along your walk. You will suddenly come out of the half caved walkway into pure paradise, several hundred metre tall karst formations with vegetation and birds flying to and from their nests, there is a decent size section if water ropes off for swimmers where there is no boat access for when the 40°C heat becomes too much and your forced to enter the tropical, fish filled waters. This beach I would recommend before all others at least to see once!

On a sunrise Phi Phi Island tour with simba Sea Trips, this was our first stop for a wander, snorkel and light breakfast Truly idealic and a great start to the day. The coral has lost a lot of colou, but the fish & clams make up for that. A great experience.

This beach is a beautiful beach. It is peaceful and clean. The best way to appreciate this beach is by using one of the resorts placed beside it. There is little shade otherwise. There are cornered off sections to guide you for swimming as there may be a few long tail boats parked a long side to offer you rides to other beaches and islands. None of which bother you too much and wait for custom. When the tide is low you'll see many rocks but this isn't often. It's a beautiful beach and worth the walk to each end.

From the pier across the Riverview Hotel, you can get a longtail boat driver to take you the ten minute or less ride up the river to this site where there are three caves. As of this writing, they generally want 600 baht for the trip, so if you can get four people, they will be glad to wait for you while you see bats, (bring a flashlight), monkeys (maybe bring bananas if you dare) and camera to see the spectacular caves (3) of which two are open at both ends to let in light and ventilation. There is a pier on the opposite side to the site which presumably is the terminus of a walking path from the road. The river is about 75 feet wide and slow moving. I did not measure the depth, but the current is slow. For those wishing only to pay the 30 Baht site admission, without the 600 Baht boat ride, with a wet bag, I think it is possible to swim or wade the distance from the pier, although I didn't do it myself.

while the Krabi beaches are usually very crowded (especially Ao Nang), it gets more quiet once you get to Khlong Muang. And driving just some 5km further, you reach the Tubkaek Beach, with some ressorts with restaurants, but beautiful and quiet. and a wonderful sunset.

Very Instagrammable place, much more quiet than the main land, one of the best island stops of the island tour. They also have drinks and (local) toilets.
